Xero C1 Pro chronograph

Description

I’ve been wanting to do this write up for a while, so today’s the day. This is my review of the Garmin Xero C1 Chronograph, the tiny little radar chrono that’s been taking the market by storm. It’s not a small investment to make, so of course everyone wants to know if it’s worth it before dropping that kind of coin. Well, I’m happy to say that it is absolutely fantastic.

I’ve used several different chronographs over the years. As I got deeper into writing for print magazines, the need for something that was both convenient and effective was at the forefront. For several reasons, I’ve been frustrated with both my optical and magnetic chronos. For a long time, I was tempted by the LabRadar and the promise of it’s radar goodness. Sadly, it didn’t seem like it was suited to my needs.

The Garmin fixed that.

Let’s get to the bottom line up front first.
